Good manager, good tech lead and good team is like heaven for a dev 😅

When you're a junior you want a strong team to learn from. When you're a senior you want a dysfunctional team so you have space to show off your abilities.

same thing I thought.

Sorry, I guess by definition this *is* a humble brag, but I still thought it was worth sharing. I mean, how else am I gonna remind you guys that I use to work at Google?

Yes,but he wasn't completely positive about it.

Waking up to 6 new errors and then spending 2 days fixing them is very relatable.

Smile fades away from junior to midlevel

babe wake up it's a new neetcode story time

You’re really relatable, which is why I watch your videos. Right on

Great story! Thank you for sharing this!

I really appreciate your honesty. Some people just completely ignore the luck factor. I believe in today’s it plays a huge part.

I loved this. As someone in my first year as a swa this is great for me.

Great video - Thanks for sharing

great story!! Keep it up!!

Nice insight 👍🏻

Man, I'm proud of this random dude. That was some good insight, thank you!

One thing I learned from working in tech: Reflection addiction Doing stuff gave me feedback, it was my job to interpret as much of that as I could, and reflect on it

Good that you acknowledge your luck.

Cool story! I was expecting that you'd be extinguishing all kinds of alerts and weird bugs for the following weeks, rolling back and rerolling infinite times. Neet job making it work from the first try!

Awesome, love a good neetcode story, thanks for sharing

Sometimes( a lot of times actually) will is as important as technical skills

He's that guy. Goat

What is your work setup? chair, table & mic etc

Thanks fam! Going through same shit and I want to quit. Not giving up anymore ... :-)

As a new member, the balance of what question to ask and to not ask is the no.1 challenge throughout my career

Crazy that a junior engineer was able to complete a legacy service migration with an independence. When I look back to my first job out of college, I didnt know what an API was, what a microservice was, what a monolith was, I didn't even know how to use GIT. None of those things are taught in school and leetcode didn't either.

TBH that doesn’t sound right even for a junior

Do you have plans to go back working in a corporate setting?

Any advice for someone whose degree taught them R, works as a database engineer using SQL Python and Java (Talend) for ETL, trying to get into full stack development/systems?

did u do a lot of googling and copying and pasting and searching stack overflow?

What does design doc at Google look like?

so when is it good to ask for help and when not to?? what about those times u don’t ask for help and cant do it independently?

Well said. I am neetcode. God damn. Oftentimes, I said the same things to myself.

Nice breakdown. I can tell about my Google experience: Joined as junior. Team is pretty competent but stuck running extremely fragile system in prod (fires everywhere, touching stuff is scary, infra keep getting deprecated forcing lot of migrations). First project is a manager's pet project that was never feasible, I have nothing to show after 6months. Manager quits after 9 months. I still don't have a project and now under a new manager, I'm stuck doing tedious cleanup that nobody wants to do for another 6 months. 16 months and I have nothing to put towards promo. Finally get assigned to a 2 person project with L6, but I'm able to contribute pretty much equally. 26 months in my Google career, the project is pretty much done (and good quality) but it's not launching because of politics. I still haven't launched anything and quit b/c I'm a little depressed and feel that promo is impossible.

First Comment Always wanted to do this 😂

Grace of god indeed!

Is that guy is Techlead ?

What tool is he using to draw on the screen?

What does he use for board drawing

Can someone please what tool he is using for the sketching

Cool story, Do a honest roadmap story without adds for self-taught developers.

Hey! I was plannning to make my own Load Balancer as a project. Could you provide me with some guidance. I'm Appplying for SDE-1 jobs and felt like this would be a nice project

If you have the will, how can you possibly fail?

But there's also a guy who back up as you said in the video

"I was actually able to deliver that project, by the grace of God." 😁

9:37 for TL;DW

They had blocking code at Google? Seriously? At Google?

You are very talented. Why dont you use your software skills on solving humanity s most important problems such as energy, food, water and diseases?

Good point. But if I can teach CS concepts to 10 people, maybe those 10 people will go on to solve those problems. I feel in this position I can be a positive multiplier.
